‘...and then the water whispered’ is inspired by the connective forces of flowing water, weaving through rock and soil, bone and battered gums, to find its way back to the great oceanic body. Through two winter residencies, one in the Snowy Mountains (Ngarigo Country) and the other in Kangaloon (Dharawal Country), we studied the land and how its been shaped by water, to develop our new collection.

“...a pebble washes onto the river bank, a long journey brought to pause. At home in its erosion, it knows that even a gentle stream can carve through stone.
fin-tipped and foraging, divining rods of swell and salt dance through currents
the sails of an ancient vessel, boned and taught…”

Sterling silver will naturally oxidize over time‭. ‬Regular cleaning with a silver polishing cloth or silver cleaning solution will help maintain‭ ‬the shine of your piece‭.

Keep your silk cord dry as much as possible‭. ‬If the cord becomes wet‭, ‬air-dry it in the shade‭. ‬If the cord becomes dirty you can hand wash it in warm water with a gentle‭ ‬natural soap‭. ‬Never use bleaches or harsh cleaners as this will destroy the silk‭. ‬
